Harness Bar

Hello. I DID search the forums for harness bar and seen a few things for light bars, tires, some rims for sale and something about a lemon lol.

I am wanting to get 5 point harness for the mini soon when i get some momo seats. I understand the Harness bar is a necessity for safety and must be installed for proper use.

I am having a hard time finding a company that supplies these.

If anyone has any input i would be greatly appreciative.

Thank you,
Mike.

Check out Sneed 4 Speed: http://www.sneed4speed.com/mini-coop...oint-roll-bar/

If you want a simpler option, I use a Schroth harness that works great and doesn't require a harness bar, however it is a different level of safety than the 5 point. https://www.schrothracing.com/tuning...esses/quickfit

Here's a harness bar if you dont want to go with a larger cage which can be bad if you hit it without a helmet.

Hi Mike:

Here is a solution for R50/R53 Minis that is both functional and cosmetically appealing. http://new.minimania.com/part/NMC104...-Mini-Cooper-S



It's made of aerospace aluminum and weighs less than 6 pounds. In addition, the bar stiffens the chassis and does not occupy or require rear seat removal. Please let us know if you have any questions!
